Chapter 816 Where is your moral integrity?
Liu Taigong said: "In this case, why don't we invite him to be a guest together and beg him hard. He is a rough warrior of seventeen or eighteen years old, and we can praise him for his heroic behavior. Maybe we can influence him."
Yang Taigong from Beiling Village said: "It makes sense. As long as we treat him with righteousness, as a warrior, he will definitely burst into tears. After all, those properties are what we have earned through hard work. If he doesn't hand it over, we will find him."
His father reasoned."
Chen Taigong snorted coldly and said: "We are all honest villagers in the county. If we invite him to a martial arts dinner, he should be grateful. I think it is not difficult to do this."
"Everything Mr. Chen said makes sense."
On the second day, Chen Zhao was invited to the Lion House by many villagers.
At the banquet, Chen Zhao took the main seat. Chen Taigong from Chenjiazhuang said with a tearful face: "Xiang Nephew of the Zhu family, we old men and Brother Chaofeng have known each other for many years, so please don't be offended if I call you my nephew.
.
The dog officer of the West City Office was so tyrannical that he wiped out my entire Chen family. Xing’s wise nephew reported it to the court and filed a royal petition, so that these man-eating tigers were allowed to leave Yanggu. The little old man had hope of reviving his family business.
My whole family is extremely grateful to my good nephew."
Taigong Liu from Hongtai Village also burst into tears and shouted: "Thanks to my nephew for speaking up and helping us get our property back. I am so lucky to have such a good man like my nephew in Yanggu County!"
Taigong Shi from Feihong Village burst into tears and said: "The bandits are like a comb, the soldiers are like a grate, and the officials are like a haircut. These thieves have taken away my fertile land, destroyed my home, and plundered my property. They are no better than animals. If they are not good nephews,
Forced to retreat from Xicheng, the old man had no choice but to hang himself..."
They all burst into tears and their sorrow shook the sky, but Chen Zhao sneered in his heart.
When these people faced the exorbitant levies imposed by the Xicheng Institute, they were as soft as noodles, and their waists were as weak as shrimps. They were all frightened and did not dare to resist at all, so they obediently handed over their property.
But as soon as the people from the Xicheng Institute left, they immediately jumped out, denounced the brutality of the Xicheng Institute, and tried their best to give Chen Zhao a high hat.
But even this high-ranking person was not willing to be given the title. This one called Chen Zhao "nephew", and the other one said that Chen Zhao was a "hero", thinking that in this way, the two of them could use their words to transfer all these properties.
Want to come back.
If Chen Zhao granted their wish, I'm afraid they would also secretly scold him, "Take it easy!"
You must know that the price of rice is very high, and the price of rice is very high.
So after Chen Zhao waited for them to perform the drama of love one by one, he smiled slightly, took out a seal, and said: "All the village elders are senior Zhu Biao. Zhu Biao will clarify one thing first." As he said this, he glanced at everyone.
.
"The officers of Xicheng Station were driven away not because the emperor reprimanded them, but because the emperor had other plans."
"What?" Everyone was puzzled.
"I wish you the best of luck in your life and the emperor's trust in appointing you as the envoy in charge of the Yanggu public land. From the day of the handover, I wish you the right to take charge of the public land in Yanggu County instead of Xicheng Suo!"
"What???"
Everyone was shocked. For a moment, everyone turned pale and their expressions changed drastically!
A dragon crossing the river left, and a tiger sitting on the ground came!
They originally thought that Zhu Biao, who was only seventeen years old, faced the oppression of the tax collectors and resolutely asked his father to go to the capital to complain and move the emperor to drive away these Xicheng police officers. This kind of bloody young man must be a hot-blooded man.
A group of old men, crying and telling the story, can move this rough warrior and make him return the money.
But when Chen Zhao said that although Xicheng had left, the agency in charge of public land in Yanggu County was still there, and he, Zhu Biao, was the new person in charge.
Only then did they realize that the Zhu Biao in front of them was not a reckless young man at all.
They immediately thought that it was Zhu Biao who had surrendered the giant man-eating insect on Jingyang Gang and killed more than a hundred criminal thieves on the official road. The news that came a few days ago that more than 200 of his men had formed a formation, they were frightened.
The imperial soldiers did not dare to advance.
With such power and force, these old men were so blinded by the hundreds of thousands of swords that they actually thought they could be fooled by a few tears.
This is simply lard that has blinded your heart!
If Zhu Biao is really angered and he gets angry, these old immortals will immediately remove the previous word and become dead.
Thinking of this, Taigong Chen still had the veteran face from yesterday. He stood up and walked to the center of the room. He immediately knelt down to Chen Zhao. While the people in the audience were stunned, he shouted: "Chenjiazhuang is willing to obey Master Biao's order."
, All matters related to public land are decided by Master Biao! Mr. Biao, the little old man, will be the prince for generations to come."
Everyone was stunned for a moment!
You have to stay here. This Mr. Chen has no sense of moral integrity. Just now, he was relying on his old age and trying to establish friendship with Zhu Chaofeng. He shouted like a good nephew at the same time, so old and strong. In the blink of an eye, he knelt down and sang "Conquer", and even talked about being a "grandfather". Are you ashamed?
Shameful?
Lao Chen, where is your integrity? Where is your face? Where is your age?
A group of people were stunned, not knowing what to say at all. Everyone in the room was silent, as if the air had become thicker, and only the heavy breathing of a few people could be heard.
Chen Zhao secretly nodded. This damn old man is indeed an old fox. He is very adaptable. If he knows that one move is not working, he will use another move. He will not care about his face, his age, or his moral integrity. He knows that saving his life is important.
With the entire audience in a state of silence, Chen Zhao picked up the bowl and took a sip of wine, his voice neither sad nor happy: "In that case, get up."
"Speaking of which, in my eyes, you are just a group of ants. Whether you collude or make trouble, I don't care."
He paused and looked at the other old people. Everyone lowered their heads and did not dare to look at him.
"The property confiscated in Xicheng has been returned to the envoy in charge, that is, in my hands. But this is a registered asset and belongs to the emperor today. If you can get it back by using some tricks, then the people in Xicheng are in
What were you doing when you were here?"
After hearing this, many Taigong were not only startled, but all of them, including Chen Taigong, raised their heads with sad expressions on their faces. What's more, some of them started to burst into tears.
After all, the wealth they had robbed accounted for about 80% of their entire village. If the people from Xicheng were here, they would not dare to take it back even if they had the courage to do so. But Chen Zhao is also a native of his hometown and has always had a good reputation.
How could such a heroic man refuse to give?
But now that I think about it carefully, if someone has money in their hands and someone, they can fight the big bug themselves. What a powerful existence that is. If someone takes it for themselves and won’t give it to you, what can you do?
It’s funny how confused I am!
Just when these people were despairing, Chen Zhaodao said: "Since Zhu is responsible for taking charge of the public land, he naturally has to manage it well. I have decided to start building roads, bridges, and water conservancy facilities in the county starting next month. I will arrange for people to direct it.
After everyone goes back, we can mobilize young people to come to work, and women and children can also participate in cooking."
Seeing everyone's puzzled expressions, he said slowly: "Everyone works for one day, and as long as they meet my requirements, they will be given money and food. The more you work, the more you will get. Let's start from Chenjiazhuang!"
After that, he stood up and left, leaving a group of dull old people in the room.
Chapter completed!
